(Not under parts as parts lists the actual parts, and not really (this is kind of borderline) in mechanics for the same reason as for mountains. I think it's best to just put this under Resources. It's a page about it's own category so it should probably belong to it.) |

'''Resources''' are the main components of nearly every item in Waste of Space. They are mainly used as ingredients in recipes when crafting the items needed to play the game.
In the [[Getting_Started#Basic Controls / Tools / GUI|crafting menu (V)]], '''Resources''', which is a button in the menu, is a category tab that lets you see the list of parts, most of which are able to be obtained from ore deposits by either clicking on them with the [[Pickaxe]] or using [[Extractor|extractors]] or [[MiningLaser|MiningLasers]], and some can only be obtained through other processes (For example, to obtain [[Glass]] you need to smelt it in a [[Kiln]]).
==Resources==
This is a list of resources that are part of the category tab named "Resources" in the craft menu.
===Common Resources===
The following resources are found on most planets:
* [[
* [[Copper]] - One of the most important parts, as it is needed for wires. Your base should be near a copper supply.
* [[Coal]] - Used for [[BurnerGenerator|burner generators]] and [[Boiler|boilers]] to make [[Power_and_electronics|Power]].
* [[Water]] - Can be made into steam to generate [[Power_and_electronics|Power]], obtained by using a [[Pump]] submerged in water or melting [[Ice]].
* [[Stone]] - A early game building material. It is used to make Templates and [[Rubber]].
* [[Sand]] - Can be turned to [[Glass]] by using a [[Kiln]] or burning it.
* [[Snow]] - Can be melted into [[Water]].
The following resources that randomly appear from harvesting mountains (Stone Deposits). The only resource that is always dropped after harvesting is [[stone]], and others can be randomized to one appearing at a time:
* [[Quartz]] - Used for many electronics.
* [[Sulfur]] - Used for many weapons. It is also useful for making [[PowerCell|PowerCells]]
* [[Ruby]] - Used for making [[NightVisionGoggles]].
* [[Flint]] - Very useful for starting fires early in the game.
* [[Silicon]] - Used for many electronic and wiring-related parts.
* [[Helium]] - Can be used as ammo for [[PlasmaCannon|PlasmaCannons]], '''Touching it will hurt!'''
* [[
* [[
===Biological Resources===
The following ressources can only be found on planets with life (such as [[Earthlike|Earthlikes]](Also know as starter planets), [[Terra|Terras]] or [[Forest|Forests]]) or produced trough [[Hydroponic]].
* [[Grass]] - A burnable material used to make [[Rubber]], can be mined on the ground with the grass texture.
* [[Wood]] - A basic resource that can be harvested from trees, used for some crafting recipes of basic structures or to sustain fire.
* [[Stick]] - Can be harvested from trees. It is used for a few crafting recipes.
===Advanced Resources===
These resource deposits are not found on [[Earthlike|Earthlike planets]] and require [[Building A Ship|space travel]] to obtain, making them one of the game's only progressions:
* [[Uranium]] - [[Radioactivity|Radioactive]] resource used in [[Reactor|reactors]] to create [[Steam]] or [[NuclearWaste]].
* [[Aluminum]] - Weak and Very light, it is used in crafting.
* [[Diamond]] - Used for advanced technology such as [[Laser|Lasers]]
* [[Lead]] - Used for recipes related to [[Radioactivity|radiation]] or weaponry
* [[Jade]] - Used in a few recipes, otherwise Unremarkable.
* [[Gold]] - Used in a few recipes, otherwise Unremarkable.
* [[Titanium]] - A tough material used for armors.
* [[Beryllium]] - Used to create the [[PlutoniumCore]] center element of the most devastating weapon; the '''[[Warhead]]'''.<small>''(Can only be found on [[Barren]] planets)''</small>
===Manufactured Resources===
The following resources can only be produced by machinery or crafting.
* [[Glass]] - Can be obtained from cooking sand in a [[Kiln]] or on a fire]], Mostly decorative but has crafting uses.
* [[Steam]] - Can be obtained from [[Boiler|Boilers]] or [[Reactor|Reactors]], solely used in [[SteamTurbine|SteamTurbines]] or [[SteamEngine|SteamEngines]] to produce [[Power_and_electronics|Power]], or Rotation.
* [[Petroleum]] and [[Gasoline]] - Obtained from a [[Refinery]] Processing [[Oil]].
* [[Rubber]] - Obtained from crafting [[Stone]] and [[Grass]] together. Used in recipes mainly related to fluids.
* [[NuclearWaste]] - Can be obtained from the [[Reactor]]'s meltdown after reaching over 1230 °F or by being triggered to drop it by [[Polysilicon|FlipFlop Polysilicon]]. Note that the [[reactor]] must reach less than a ninth, which is around 0.9, of the fuel rod if you want to obtain it.
===Exotic Resources===
These resource are hard to obtain and require special technology to get.
* [[ExoticMatter]] - Can be rarely obtained from [[Aliens|alien fighters]], which have [[Bin|bins]] and [[Container|containers]]
* [[DarkMatter]] - Can be obtained by using [[DarkReactor]] in black hole regions
* [[Neutronium]], [[Hydrogen]] and [[Plasma]] - Can be obtained by using the [[SolarScoop]] facing stars
* [[AlienCore]] - Can be obtained from defeating [[Aliens]]
===Unobtainable Resources===
The following resources that are unobtainable to any players or have been removed.
* [[Lava]] - A proposed fluid that is unobtainable.
* [[Magnesium]] - A metal that was used to make [[PowerCell|PowerCells]] and [[Battery|Batteries]], it was removed due to gravity-related glitch.
* [[NitrogenOxide]] - A proposed, unimplemented gas.
* [[Perfectium]] - A insanely malleable resource that is unbreakable.
* [[Obamium]] - 2021 April fools resource.
* [[Stanlium]] - 2023 April fools resource, its description was semi-random.
==Randomly
Materials that are not in the list of the craft menu are called "Randomly generated resources" or "Custom resources".
These resources are exclusive to the planet they generated on. All planets except for [[Earthlike|Earthlikes]] will have these materials, and a planet can only have one random material.
The resources will have random properties, ranging from non-malleable and brittle, to stretchier and harder than most resources, while others could be radioactive or even explode on contact with other resources.
Some of these properties can be known the name are searched up in the help menu when the player is at the planet the resource is generated on.
Known random resource effects:
